Fat reduced milk is gross, tastes like funny water
[quote] when she realized the spread is about as healthy as your average Snickers bar[/quote] This line in particular really pissed me off. How much fucking spread is as bad as a snickers bar? This needs to be an actual comparison. For all I know, this could be referring to a whole jar which would be really good. They could be just twisting the words to make it sound worse than it is. Fucking sensationalism.
I think the women does have a point here. She is pretty stupid, but companies should not be able to claim that there product is healthy for you, when it obviously isn't. Edit: Nevermind, the ad never says that Nutella is healthy, just that, when combined with other healthy items, it makes a "balanced" breakfast. She's just stupid.
[QUOTE=thisispain;35740428]it's not a chocolate spread, it's hazelnuts thank you![/QUOTE] CHOCOLATE hazelnut. It's fucking chocolate. It tastes exactly like those fererro rocher chocolate hazelnut candies Because that's exactly what it is. [editline]29th April 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=mugofdoom;35740762]It's way too rich imo. Otherwise it's okay.[/QUOTE] I find the best way to eat it is with peanut butter on a sandwich or with a little bit on apple slices. [editline]29th April 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=monkey11;35740815]Its a chocolate hazelnut spread, aka a chocolate flavored hazelnut spread. Thats like say chocolate milk, is chocolate before its milk.[/QUOTE] You are very dense. Nutella is not a 'chocolate flavoured' spread. It IS a chocolate spread. It has cocoa solids in it. That makes it a chocolate spread. It also has hazelnuts. It's a chocolate hazelnut spread.
[QUOTE=n0cturni;35736318]Well if it's advertised as such, then I can't really blame her in the same way I'd blame someone for trying to sue because there was no warning on the cup of hot coffee they were burned by.[/QUOTE] Have you seen her legs? You could see the bones in her legs because the coffee burned her flesh off.

In terms of calories, fat, cholesterol, and sodium, Nutella is the better choice. In terms of Carbs and protein, Snickers wins.
Completely ridiculous lawsuit. Absolutely ridiculous. Nutella never directly said their product was healthy and anyone that can read can plainly look at the nutritional facts and see that it's obviously not something to be eaten in large quantities. Yes Nutella has said that their product can make for a good breakfast, as long as you're eating a balanced breakfast with an appropriate serving of the chocolate spread and other essentials like fruit. The woman who filed the lawsuit is just an ignorant person who couldn't read a label and is looking for a scapegoat.
I think the fact that this woman is going to get rich as fuck for being the first to file a lawsuit is bullshit. She doesn't deserve $1.5 million. Heck, it's not even her health. What are the odds that she'll give all that money to the daughter, the person supposedly affected?
Snickers can be a part of a healthy breakfast too!
[QUOTE=Kabstrac;35738188]And honestly, a glass of orange juice isn`t that great either. You`d be way better off with a real orange and water. Or maybe like 3 oranges. But, whatever....[/QUOTE] Yeah Minute Maid isn't much better than coke...
What a fucking horrendous woman. $1.5 Mil for doing fuck all. What's she going to spend it on? [i]Retarded crap[/i] most likely.
[QUOTE=SCopE5000;35778129]What a fucking horrendous woman. $1.5 Mil for doing fuck all. What's she going to spend it on? [i]Retarded crap[/i] most likely.[/QUOTE]Spend it on more Nutella, sue again. An endless and delicious cycle.
What if you put Nutella on broccoli? Would that "balance" it?
I am so sick of dumb shits cashing out by suing a large company because they did something stupid. Scum of the Earth.
I'm really fucking glad that we don't have these kinds of people here in scandinavia.
Common sense seems to be something that is missing in this person.
[QUOTE=Melkor;35752379]Have you seen her legs? You could see the bones in her legs because the coffee burned her flesh off.[/QUOTE] greatest part: even after receiving third degree burns from her coffee she respectfully requested mcdonalds pay her medical bills. mcdonalds: nope lol! woman was forced to sue because she'd lost her job because she couldn't move because her [I]vagina had been burned off[/I] (not really but u all get the point) also this shit happened at the very same mcdonalds a dozen times before, and no one took it to court. you guys realize that if she actually [I]won[/I] the suit, that means that there is [B]legitimate[/B] evidence for her side of the case, right? Torts don't involve just wild accusations being taken as fact, they have to be backed up very well in order to convince a jury of liability...
Meh, Nutella is overpriced here AND they're selling those weird "squeezed" jar types that contain less anyway. I prefer Rainbow's Maitosuklaalevite.
[QUOTE=Kabstrac;35738188]And honestly, a glass of orange juice isn`t that great either. You`d be way better off with a real orange and water. Or maybe like 3 oranges. But, whatever....[/QUOTE] Actually, not even todays real oranges are that healthy. If you want Vitamin C you are way better off with brocolli or some other vegetables. Fruit contains a lot of sugar.
You can eat an entire chocolate bar for the same nutrition as 2 (TWO) tablespoons of Nutella. I think I'd rather have a chocolate bar.
I love Nutella but it is too damn expensive.
[QUOTE=jbthekid;35785069]You can eat an entire chocolate bar for the same nutrition as 2 (TWO) tablespoons of Nutella. I think I'd rather have a chocolate bar.[/QUOTE] No candybar on earth beats nutella with toast.
So guys..... I've never had Nutella....... am I a bad person?
Really? Fucking meat is good for you in moderation, but if you eat it 24/7 it becomes unhealthy, soccer moms will be soccer moms.
I did this for airborne and got $20 a couple of years ago. I have purchased both products (nutella and airborne), so my claims ARE legimiate.
